Funny coz I was looking this up yesterday. There were these little tackers outside our place playing music and I wanted to get a copy of the Swannies Song to get them to play it or $5.00. There are a few articles which suggest it is not a fighting song but a Victory March. I don't know the...

It's not OK. BUT (and this may be more of an overseas thing) 'ape' has specific meaning in reference to 'blacks'. This girl may not be aware of what she was saying but this incident has highlighted a structural social discrimination. Goodes is no dill. He has been around the traps dealing with...

No fights in Sydney. Think that is coz we drink chardonay and not beer. :)

Corroboree

National Anthem - finals only Last Post - Anzac Day only NA should be about the nation and people not a performance by some star. Though the bloke at ANZ on Sat nite did a good job and people around me joined in. And while we are at it - Can we do with less militarization of the game? -...

Australian Rules mode Distance from goal line to goal line 151.6m If they add 3 metres to that in the refurb it will be all good http://www.sydneycricketground.com.au/venues/field-information/scg-field/

I haven't posted here in a while but this deserves a comment. Eddie should stick to football. I am tired of bloddy gambling adverts on TV and sports connection to gambling. Gambling causes too much misery in the community to be promoted in any way. IT AIN'T A TAX!!!!

Thought this may be of interest. Can't wait for a second team in Sydney - IT WILL BE HUGE!!!!!!! http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/sport/muslim-women-find-a-new-goal-with-afl/story-e6frg7mf-1226064412743 The 22-year-old has never watched a game of football on television or live, but...

Anzac Day long weekend - heaps left town. Five of us regulars where at the Opera House for the wedding of a Hawks fan. According to his brother he orriginally supported Collingwood. We gave him heaps.

Always hard to get membership numbers out of Sydney but I sent them an email. For the first time this year Swans have: 1. Full Blooded Member - 11 games 2. Full Blooded Member - 8 games SCG only 3. Red Member - 3 games - any venue, any game 4. Red Member - 3 games, 3 cities - Sydney...

crap - there r an increasing number of Swans jumpers around town (not heaps but there r not heaps of league jumpers either). But then again I live in Chablis sipping Inner West.

The Surry Hills Festival would have drawn a crowd of 20 000 plus

There needs to be a game played in Sydney every weekend (or near enough to it). With one team there are times when there is a game every three weeks. If ALF is be be taken seriously and is to be an 'in your face' part of the Sydney sports scene a second team is a must. Sydney and Western...

Because of the SCG new seating structure enabled by the new Victor Trumper Stand. Mine has gone down $30 - members reserve

That is simply not true. There are many bike routes http://www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/story/0,22049,21631219-5010580,00.html (not as extensive as Melb) and they are used - I live alongside one of em - they are used every day of the week. Sydney to Wollongong bike ride 2 weeks ago - over 8...

You both miss the point. The big dollars come from television rights, corporate dollars etc. A second Syd team in the AFL is worth a windfall. A team in Tas will be a drain on the AFL coffers. It's not about support - it is about dollars.

four week penalty and legal action against the AFL under OHS laws.

AFL has 2 options. Either Baz gets off or they face legal action under OHS rules;) His punch is talk of the town up here. Redfern (Rabbitioh's turf) is talking nothing other than Baz this morning.

Queen's - ERII Queens' - on Oxford Street Could be wrong - Queen's English cud b a noun rather than Queen's being an adjective qualitifying the noun.

Very true :thumbsu:

valid point but do 35 000 travel north?

And the question is: "Do those extra 35 000 that attend games in Western Syd (Telstra and now ANZ Stadium) form the basis of support for a Western Sydney team?"
